About this opportunity
The Library of Congress is seeking a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Agile System Development Support Services. The solicitation (030ADV22R0079) aims to procure comprehensive IT services to support the library's technology infrastructure, with a primary focus on agile software development, systems integration, DevOps, and continuous delivery. The contract will cover services including software development, user experience design, business analysis, requirements support, quality control, testing, and project management. Interested vendors must demonstrate expertise in agile methodologies and the ability to support the Library's complex information technology environment. The solicitation was posted on December 1, 2022, with proposals due by January 13, 2023, and potential vendors were required to submit any questions by specific deadlines outlined in the attached vendor questions document.
The solicitation is not set aside for any specific small business category and is open to a broad range of IT service providers. The place of performance is Washington, DC, and the contract will support the Library of Congress's mission of maintaining its extensive collection of over 162 million items. While specific award values are not explicitly stated in the solicitation, the contract is structured as a multiple-award IDIQ, suggesting potential for several vendors to receive task orders. The contract will utilize the library's System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which supports both traditional waterfall and agile/iterative delivery models, with an expectation that most task orders will follow the agile approach. The procurement is categorized under NAICS code 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) and PSC code DA01 (IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Support Services).
